Using the metadata filter

In the DBQ you can create a metadata filter that contains rules based on metadata values. The DBQ will in this case only select documents in the Document Broker repository that fulfill the rules specified in the filter.

The metadata available in the filter is the metadata shared by the selected document types including all system metadata. For example:

•	If you select a single document type in the document types filter, all metadata defined for this document type is available.

•	If you select several document types, only metadata shared by all document types is available.

To create a rule

1	Click Add.

2	In Metadata Group, select the metadata group that contains the metadata to use. Note that STATIC means system metadata.

3	In Metadata Name, select the metadata to use in the rule.

4	In Operator, select the operator to use in the rule.

5	In Value, enter the metadata value to use in the rule.

Adding several rules

You can add several rules to the metadata filter. All rules that you add to the filter must be fulfilled when selecting documents in the Document Broker repository.

To remove rules from the filter

1	Select the check-boxes for all rules you want to remove.

2	Click Remove Selected.
